Milan and the car are perfectly matched with each other. Ride a race with the wind on the magnificent Milan roads, for example, on the chic "Ferrari" - is this not the limit of the dreams of every motorist. But if not everyone can afford to hire this masterpiece of Italian automotive art (the average rent price is 1000 EUR per day), then everyone who has enough money for a ticket to Milan can rent a car of the economy class.
Behind the wheel of the car you will no longer be an outside observer, but the direct creator and a participant in exciting Italian adventures. You will feel complete freedom of movement and time management, and after returning home, you will remember for a long time your car trips around Lombardy and the surrounding provinces.
Rental conditions and contract
The drivers of the rented car are allowed to tourists who have reached the age of 21 and minimum driving experience of one year. To conclude a lease agreement, a small package of documents will be required: a passport (some companies ask for an additional identity document), an international driving license, a booking confirmation (if auto was reserved via the Internet), and a credit card (required to block money as collateral ).
Before signing the lease, it is very important to carefully inspect the car for scratches, rubs and any other damage. The contract itself deserves no less attention - it should be read, all the issues immediately discussed and only then signed.
Petrol
Most Car rentals are provided by cars with a full tank and ask that the car be returned with the same amount of fuel. Sometimes you can be offered to pay for gasoline and return the car with an empty tank or take a car with a full tank and pay only for the amount of gasoline that you use (this service is convenient for those who do not plan a long trip).
